A Simple Technique to Hold Concentration  During Meditation

Most of the time when we have trouble concentrating it's because we are not meditating at all.  Well we are, but it is usually that we are meditating on the world.  We sit down, say our mantra 2 times and start to think about our life.  So I have a suggestion to see if this is the case and hopefully correct it. 

When you sit down to meditate, see how many times you actually repeat A-U-M.  After each A-U-M, count, for example say A-U-M then count 1, A-U-M then count 2.   See if you get to 10.  If you don't, try again until you get to 10.  After you reach 10, do not count anymore.   Continue to repeat the mantra without counting.  When you count, do not use your fingers.  This brings your concentration below the eyebrow center.  

You can even practice this during your day when you are not sitting down meditating.  You can do this when you are walking, driving, etc., with your eyes open of course.  But when it is time to meditate, you do it with the eyes closed sitting down like on the download. 

For those who had trouble concentrating let me know how this works out for you.

Sincerely,

 Craig Kimbrough
